Brush Up Your Proficiency
#70 - commotion
The patients and their families, keenly aware of the aroma of the dishes, felt their throats involuntarily tighten, secretly pondering: "Could it be that the hospital cafeteria is sparing no expense today? Making such tempting food? We must urge our family members to hurry and get food later!"
Especially the heart patients participating in the comparative trial, those residing in the same ward, shared this sentiment even more intensely.
They had personally witnessed the mouthwatering dishes and smelled their captivating fragrance up close.
Although they noticed that their own portions were not among the food the doctors were carrying, they didn't complain but headed straight for the cafeteria without hesitation.
This phenomenon spread rapidly through the crowd like a virus, everyone seemingly infected, eager to taste the legendary delicious food.
As a result, the number of people going to the cafeteria for food surged that day, causing the kitchen staff, who usually handled the workload with ease, to become flustered. Even the usually spacious cafeteria became crowded and cramped, with the air seeming to thin.
However, when people eagerly received their portions, they discovered that reality was far from their expectations.
The food before them was not as rich and tempting as rumored, but rather appeared bland and unremarkable.
Disappointed, people began to complain about the hospital staff, believing that they ate much better food than they were provided with, which was so ordinary.
This dissatisfaction gradually spread, leading to numerous complaints.
After understanding the situation, the hospital quickly issued a clarification and released the surveillance footage from the previous experiment, which quelled this unexpected disaster that had surprised the hospital.
Amidst this small commotion, the heart patients were the happiest.
Initially, when the hospital notified them to participate in an experiment, reluctance was evident on their faces, but when they learned that the experiment might help their condition, they reluctantly agreed.
However, deep down, they still harbored resentment towards the hospital for treating them as guinea pigs.
It wasn't until nearly noon today that these heart patients truly felt surprised.
They watched as doctors in white coats carefully carried portions of fragrant dishes to them and solemnly told them: this was the "medicine" for their experiment.
This made them unsure what the hospital was up to.
Through conversations with the doctors, they learned that their experiment was a dietary therapy experiment, and their cooperation required them to eat these dishes properly and wait for a check-up a few hours later.
They vaguely sensed a feeling of envy from the doctors, who couldn't have any.
What is happiness? Happiness is: I have it, but you don't, so I am happier than you.
The experimental patients felt this way at this moment. Knowing that the doctors couldn't eat such delicious food, their mood instantly brightened, and their previous resentment was long forgotten.
They even started teasing the doctors: "Do you want a bite?" The doctors could only smile helplessly, indicating that they couldn't eat it, but their eyes never left the delicious dishes.
As time passed, the patients slowly enjoyed the food, while the doctors stood aside, drooling and recording various data.
Each patient ate with relish, occasionally showing off the deliciousness of the food to the doctors, making them envious.
Seeing the doctors' greedy expressions, the patients felt extremely smug. But they still pretended to be generous and invited the doctors to share, although their expressions didn't look sincere at all.
Finally, the doctors couldn't resist anymore. They gathered around, staring at the food in the patients' hands, as if trying to see through it. However, the patients didn't really intend to share with them, just teasing them on purpose.
As the doctors approached, the patients quickly put the food in their mouths and chewed it heartily, leaving the doctors only able to watch helplessly.
This feeling was simply torture for the doctors. They secretly vowed to find a chance to get some delicious food next time and bring it here to eat.
Fortunately, this torment ended quickly. Chen Hua and the others gathered together with their records and the patients' empty tableware, looking at each other in dismay. Now, all they could do was wait for the second check-up in a few hours.
When the expert saw that everyone was present, he took them to eat in the cafeteria. The taste of the cafeteria food reminded them once again of the torment they had just endured.
Thinking of the incredibly delicious meal just now, they couldn't help but feel a sense of regret and loss. This feeling made them realize that food could be so fascinating.
When they actually sat at the cafeteria table, facing the food in front of them, they found that their sense of smell had been spoiled by the previous deliciousness.
When she saw their encouraging and supportive smiles, the tension in her heart gradually dissipated, replaced by a sense of determination and confidence.
Her clenched fists slowly loosened, and a sweet smile bloomed on her face.
"Wang Hao, do you think Xiao Nannan's test results will be better this time?" Cheng Yufei looked at the closed door, her eyes revealing deep concern.
She turned her head and looked at Wang Hao beside her, hoping to get some comfort and confidence from him.
However, she also knew that Wang Hao couldn't give a definite answer. But she still needed someone to confide in to release the anxiety in her heart.
Wang Hao gently patted Cheng Yufei's shoulder, trying to give her some strength and support: "Hopefully. Don't worry, the results will come out eventually. There's no use worrying too much, let's just wait quietly."
Wang Hao replied with a smile. Although he was somewhat confident in the magical effect of the cheat, he couldn't be so sure until the results came out, so he could only comfort her by saying he hoped so.
Cheng Yufei nodded, her eyes flashing with tears. She understood what Wang Hao said, but the worry in her heart for her best friend still couldn't be completely eliminated.
